Hello everyone, This RFC implements packed ring support for virtio driver. The code was tested with DPDK vhost (testpmd/vhost-PMD) implemented by Jens at http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-January/089417.html Minor changes are needed for the vhost code, e.g. to kick the guest. TODO: - Refinements and bug fixes; - Split into small patches; - Test indirect descriptor support; - Test/fix event

Hi, This patch set implements packed ring support in virtio driver. A performance test between pktgen (pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh) and DPDK vhost (testpmd/rxonly/vhost-PMD) has been done, I saw ~30% performance gain in packed ring in this case. To make this patch set work with below patch set for vhost, some hacks are needed to set the _F_NEXT flag in indirect descriptors (this should

Improves cacheline transfer flow of available ring header. Virtqueues are implemented as a pair of rings, one producer->consumer avail ring and one consumer->producer used ring; preceding the avail ring in memory are two contiguous u16 fields -- avail->flags and avail->idx. A producer posts work by writing to avail->idx and a consumer reads avail->idx. The flags and idx fields

This adds wrappers to switch between native endian-ness (virtio 0.9) and virtio endian-ness (virtio 1.0). Add new typedefs as well, so that we can check statically that we didn't miss any accesses. All callers simply pass in false (0.9) so no functional change for now. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst at redhat.com> --- Sending this early so I can get feedback on this style.

Hi all: This RFC implement a subset of packed ring which was described at https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-docs/blob/master/virtio-v1.1-packed-wd07.pdf . The code were tested with pmd implement by Jens at http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-January/089417.html. Minor change was needed for pmd codes to kick virtqueue since it assumes a busy polling backend. Test were done between localhost

Hello everyone, This patch set implements packed ring support in virtio driver. Some functional tests have been done with Jason's packed ring implementation in vhost: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/3/33 Both of ping and netperf worked as expected. v1 -> v2: - Use READ_ONCE() to read event off_wrap and flags together (Jason); - Add comments related to ccw (Jason); RFC (v6) -> v1: -
